What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Enamelled steel
Enamelled steel trays behave like steel baths. Exposed metal can rust, so it’s worth repairing early.
Honest limits
A few problems are outside what a surface repair can do:
- Plumbing leaks under the tray
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed
- A tray broken in more than one place
Send us photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

What shower tray repair costs
Repairs from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your pictures. What matters most is:
- The material and finish
- What kind of damage it is
- The size and number of damaged areas
- How many items we do on one visit
Set against the cost of replacement, a repair is usually a fraction of the price, because there’s no removal, plumbing or making good. The quote lists exactly what you are paying for.
Getting a price from photos
Before you send pictures, these tips help us give you a firm price:
- Details of any past repairs
- The postcode, so we can plan the visit
- A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
Upload photos of the damage and a wider shot of the entire item, with your DE13 postcode, and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Can I fix it myself?
For a hairline mark somewhere you will never see, a kit may be enough. For damage in plain view, cracks, holes or rust, or coloured finishes, it’s worth having it done properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.
What happens on the day
When we visit, the technician arrives at the agreed time, protects the room with dust sheets and masking and gets started. The job generally takes a few hours, or most of the day to resurface the whole tray. We clean up when we are done and let you know when you can use it again.
- First we check the tray is solid and work out why any crack happened.
- We clean and prepare the damaged area or the whole tray.
- Chips and cracks are filled, reinforced and sanded level.
- We colour-match the repair, or spray a new finish across the entire tray.
- Once cured, generally by the following day, you can use the shower.
How to prepare
- Ensure the room can be ventilated
- Clear the area around the damage
- Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Advice
Repair or replace: which is better?
A new tray can be cheap, but fitting it isn’t: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your pictures is the price you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.

How to care for the repair
After the repair has cured, a few habits help it last:
- Get a moving tray checked
- Rinse away soap after showering
- Check the seal every few months
- Store bottles off the tray
Rinse the tray after use, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water cannot get underneath.
Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. It lets water behind the tray and can damage the floor below.
